Over the past decade or so, white supremacist groups with names like the Patriot Front and the Atomwaffen Division have been quietly recruiting new members online, spreading propaganda and conducting paramilitary training exercises across North America.  One of these groups is called The Base and, in the summer of 2019, Scott Payne wanted to become a member.  But Scott wasn’t a neo nazi or a rightwing extremist. He was an undercover FBI agent.  Over the course of 28 years in law enforcement Scott has infiltrated biker gangs, posed as a hitman, and ingratiated himself with drug dealers.  Now he’s taking us inside that world, with a memoir called Codename: Pale Horse, and the second season of the CBC podcast White Hot Hate, both of which he worked on with journalist Michelle Shephard.
